Amazon Redshift Serverless enables users to run high-performance analytics without provisioning or managing clusters, automatically scaling data warehouse capacity to workload demands. This release extends availability to the Asia Pacific (New Zealand) region, allowing faster insights through SQL querying and integration with existing BI tools.
The serverless model bills compute resources per second used, simplifying cost management. It supports querying data stored in Amazon S3 with open formats such as Apache Parquet and Iceberg, and integrates with existing Redshift features like data shares and snapshots without requiring manual infrastructure configuration.
